I had this epiphany yesterday:
Slow down.
Relax. Don’t rush from problem to problem.
The world won’t end if you take an extra five minutes to respond to something.
I felt calmer and less stressed out when I recognized this and actually slowed down.
It lasted about an hour before life said, “F*ck you, no. Get over here and deal with this now!”
It was nice while it lasted, and I’m constantly struggling to find my way back to that state of mind…
